Orangutang (Explicit)
To mark the end of days, New York City frontman Stanley Man revisits the wave of apocalyptic catastrophe that followed him from 9-11 in New York to Katrina in New Orleans to last year's wildfires in Central Texas with "Orangutang", an explosive solo debut featuring his signature off-center songwriting on a backbone of hard-hitting, guitar-driven Texas rock and roll.
Recording this latest and potentially last project in Austin—The Live Music Capital of the World—he enlists a roster of local all-stars, including guitar alchemist Josh Zee and veteran bassist Danny G, together for the first and likely only time with celebrated power drummer Trinidad Leal. This firebrand concoction taps a gushing vein of musical fuel unmatched in Texas since drilling went off-shore, just in time for our grisly demise.
Toxic, greasy and flammable, with themes of love among the ruins, Stanley Man unleashes his primal savagery in defiant protest to the gods, forging a raucous, high-octane tour de force primed for every highway in the nation—with a grin.
While in New York, Stanley Man fronted the alternative rock bands Brain Delay and Omnilingus.
